COVID vaccines and neuropathy

@skallinn14 my physicians also feel the vaccine “uncovered” some underlying neuro issues I have by causing over activity to my entire nervous system. In addition to burning in both feet (and hands too for a while, which has fortunately resolved), I have a weak feeling, twitchy and at times painful right leg. I’ve known that I have spinal issues for a while due to degenerative joint disease, but prior to getting the vaccine my symptoms were purely local, i.e. low back pain, neck pain, stiff shoulders etc. The leg involvement was very sudden and started the day after I got my first Pfizer dose. My EMG showed pinched nerves at S1 on both sides, but worse in the right which is my problem leg. This is not something that happened over night, however my neuro symptoms did appear literally overnight after getting the shot. So I think the docs are right about that aspect of it. It’s been a very confusing and distressing 7+ months for me.

I'm so sorry to hear this. I'm going through similar things now. I'm having my EMG on both legs in a few weeks. How painful was the test and how long did it take? what part of your body was tested to get those results? I'm nervous about both the pain and the outcome. I'm also having and MRI on my cervical spine for sudden neuropathy in my head. This is just unreal. So much pain. Sleep is impossible. Any small issue I had before, as well as big issues, are screaming on overdrive now. Did you report? What did they say? Sorry for the questions. I hope you get relief soon!
